Rotary started with the vision of one man — Paul Harris. The Chicago attorney formed the Rotary Club of Chicago on 23 February 1905, so professionals with diverse backgrounds could exchange ideas and form meaningful, lifelong friendships. Over time, Rotary’s reach and vision gradually extended to humanitarian service. Members have a long track record of addressing challenges in their communities and around the world.

That commitment endures today; District Governor Jewelie Grape had a vision of engaging and connecting members through the Staying Engaged Series. The series takes diverse professionals from around District 5950 and asks them to share their Rotary expertise and knowledge. The series will not only offer meaningful relevant and knowledge but include a dedicated question & answer and discussion time.
